Australian bonds jump tracking U.S. treasuries ahead of January employment report

Australian bonds jumped during early Asian session Wednesday, tracking similar movement in the U.S. Treasuries ahead of the employment report for the month of January, scheduled to be released on February 15 by 00:30GMT for further insight into the debt market.

Investors will continued to watch the latest in the bond market as concerns over higher interest rates weighed.

The Labor Department is set to release its monthly Consumer Price Index (CPI) data on Wednesday, the next inflation update for investors. That report, along with the Producer Price Index (PPI) data on Thursday, will be scrutinized by both traders and Federal Reserve officials for any signs of price movement in the economy.

Any hint of rising inflation could push yields higher, a fear which helped spark last week’s big equity sell-off.

Bonds, Australian bonds jump tracking U.S. treasuries ahead of January employment report

Australian bonds jumped during early Asian session at the start of the week Monday, tracking similar movement in the U.S. counterpart as investors wait to watch the former’s employment report for the month of January, scheduled to be released on February 15 by 00:30GMT for further insight into the debt market.

Fed rhetoric suggests no knee-jerk concern about last week’s market volatility, with Kaplan opining the recent selloff as a “market event” that could be “healthy”. Meanwhile, wholesale inventories rose 0.4 percent m/m in December 2017.

Australian bonds suffer on hopes of fall in December retail sales; investors eye rba’s policy decision

Australian government bonds suffered at the start of the trading week Monday on hopes of a fall in the country’s retail sales for the month of December, scheduled to be released on February 6 by 00:30GMT, besides, the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) monetary policy meeting, due on the same day by 03:30GMT, which will add further direction to the debt market.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to its price, remained tad higher at 2.90 percent, the yield on the long-term 30-year note hovered around 3.52 percent and the yield on short-term 2-year traded 1/2 basis point higher at 2.06 percent 05:10GMT.

The RBA is seen to keep the cash rate on hold, while commentary will be more upbeat after a positive run of data both domestically and globally. The higher AUD provides a bit of an offset and may see some refinement to the RBA’s commentary around the currency, but its move in trade-weighted terms since November is minimal and commodity prices are stronger; so there is not expected to be that much concern about the impact of the higher AUD/USD, ANZ Research reported.

“In terms of the RBA’s forecasts, the one substantive change we are looking for is a lower unemployment forecast. We think it is likely that the Bank will reduce the 2018 year-end forecast from 5-1/2 percent to 5-1/4 percent and predict 5 percent by the end of the forecast period,” the report added.

Australian government bonds slumped on the last trading day of the week Friday after the country’s producer price index for the fourth quarter of 2017 jumped beyond market expectations and higher than the prior figures as well. Investors will now be focussing on the Reserve Bank of Australia’s (RBA) monetary policy decision, scheduled to be unveiled by early next week for further direction in the debt market.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to its price, jumped 4 basis points to 2.82 percent, the yield on the long-term 30-year note surged 2 basis points to 3.43 percent and the yield on short-term 2-year traded tad higher at 2.01 percent 04:25GMT.

Final demand producer prices in Australia were up 0.6 percent on quarter in the fourth quarter of 2017, the Australian Bureau of Statistics said on Friday, following the 0.2 percent gain in the three months prior.

The increase was mainly due to rises in the prices received for petroleum refining and petroleum fuel manufacturing (+11.9 percent), heavy and civil engineering construction (+0.7 percent) and building construction (+0.4 percent).

Lastly, while the RBA is expected to remain on hold, the tone of the RBA commentary will be more upbeat after a positive run of data both domestically and globally, ANZ Research reported.

Australian bonds gain following firmness in U.S. treasuries; Q4 CPI in focus

Australian government bonds regained some ground on Wednesday in line with the U.S. Treasuries, where strong demand at an auction of two-year paper supported sentiment. Also, investors will now focus on the fourth quarter inflation data.

The yield on the benchmark 10-year Treasury note, which moves inversely to its price, fell 3 basis points to 2.794 percent, the yield on the long-term 30-year note slid 3-1/2 basis points to 3.425 percent and the yield on short-term 2-year down 2 basis points to 2.078 percent by 03:40 GMT.

In the United States, Treasuries saw upward pressure across the curve during a relatively quiet session light on economic data of great significance. On the data front, markets were largely limited to a lackluster Richmond Fed manufacturing activity index release, decreasing to 14 in January, from 20 in December and a well-subscribed 2-year Note auction.

Markets now await a light flow of data on Wednesday, highlighted by existing home sales and Markit US/services PMI data, followed by a 5-year Note auction later in the session.
